There are no Windows 7 drivers for this laptop according to the Acer website. That being said, there's also the chance that it could be 3 different camera's, so choosing the correct driver might be difficult without the specifications for your exact notebook. Have you contacted Acer support at all?

But is does not harm to check if your Java, Flash and Quicktimesoftware are installed and up to date. But certainly check your DirectX software, since all video applications, including webcams, use DirectX for video processing. Try downloading the latest DirectX version and install it (Windows XP: DirectX 9.0c- Windows Vista: DirectX 10). http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Which-version-of-DirectX-is-on-your-computer Hope this helps.

From looking at the Acer support site it looks as if they haven't sorted out the driver files for Window 7 yet for the Bison, Logitech and Suyin webcams. I've had mixed success in the past by downloading and installing the older drivers for Vista but it's pretty hit and miss. Hopefully the afore mentioned manufacturer's are working on providing updated drivers for Windows 7 very soon.
